Changing our perspective

Eight years after Neil Armstrong stepped out of a rocket ship and became the first human being to set foot on the moon, NASA began its Voyager mission. The twin probes were able to travel nearly 36,000 mph, which was good, since their mission was to explore Jupiter, the fifth planet from the sun, along … Read more

Come nearer

The image on the right is our Sun! Three hundred thousand times the size of Earth, blazing at nearly eleven thousand degrees Fahrenheit, its magnetic field stretching through interplanetary space to the outer limits of the solar system.[1] No one has ever seen the Sun like this before! It’s the first “closeup,” via the world’s largest … Read more

Role playing

In theater, a cue is a signal for an actor to do or say something or an instruction for a technician or stage hand.

The world’s not ending quite yet

CNN wrote a piece today about a psychic who claimed back in 2008 that “around 2020, a severe pneumonia-like illness will spread throughout the globe, attacking the lungs and bronchial tubes and resisting all known treatments.

Faith is our eyes on God

“I pray that you will continually experience the immeasurable greatness of God’s power made available to you through faith.[1] … Faith empowers us to see that the universe was created and beautifully coordinated by the power of God’s words!”[2] Without faith, we can estimate that the universe is about 93 billion light-years in diameter. That’s … Read more

Are you a Christ-follower? Sure?

Following Jesus is not about doing something else. Following Jesus is about being somebody else. Not about going to church, singing in a choir, fasting, praying and reading the Bible. Anybody can do that and be as far from being a Christ-follower as Harold Shipman.[1] Following Christ is where you stop being who you were … Read more

One-Hit wonders

[vc_row][vc_column][vc_empty_space][vc_single_image image=”2235″ img_size=”full”][vc_empty_space][vc_column_text]Back in 1996, Tom Hanks wrote, directed and starred in a hilarious comedy called That Thing You Do, about a one-hit rock band that topped the charts, then faded into anonymity.
